Whitewash Is Brainwash - Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly

Our TV sets are drenched in pseudo reality

When the truth is endemol can’t save you from mundane existence

Twelve unknowns light up 7 million homes

Yet the news at ten is barely watched

As it’s the same old war again

Lets talk about romance

Romance is dead

An ideology exploited for commercial gain

They want you to fall in love

With the idea of being in love

Because nothing says I love you better than flowers and chocolates and cards

But its all right now

I can see clearer now

Its all right now

Now your head is up out of the clouds

You can call me a cynic

But at least I’m realistic

I went to Ikea today

It didn’t change my life

Yet everyone in my street is going Scandinavian

It’s like the upper east side in semi-detached suburban Britain

You have to ask yourself why?

Its like whitewash is brainwash

They’re diluting out style
